It reads like a juicy tell-all.

But Dancing with the Stars pro Karina Smirnoff isn’t naming names in her new book titled We’re Just Not That Into You.

Though she and her gal pals like Cheryl Burke and Lea Thompson share the deets from some of their worst dates ever, Smirnoff refuses to kiss and tell about some of her famous boyfriends – at least to a point.

“I wanted to make sure it’s not about bashing anyone,” says Smirnoff, who recently announced she’ll skip the 20th season of DWTS so she can promote the book. “It’s not about calling anyone out. It’s literally looking at dates from a positive perspective. You need to be able to laugh at yourself, and then you will enjoy the dating process that much more.”

That said, it seems kind of obvious that the A-list star that took her to a very public restaurant while talking her ear off was probably Owen Wilson. Or that the “super hot” and “sexual” DWTS celebrity she got hot and heavy with was obviously Mario Lopez. But Smirnoff is just as tight-lipped about her hookups as she is about her current romantic situation, even though multiple reports say she’s engaged to Jason Adelman.

In fact, she’s hoping all of her past paramours take a gander at her book.

“I’m curious to find out if they are going to blow their own whistle and say, ‘This is not the way that happened!’ ” Smirnoff says. “I’ll be like, ‘Dude, I never said it was you!’ I’m kinda looking forward to that. I want to see how they all react. None of it is negative or mean. We aren’t calling anyone anything they haven’t been called.”
